Red Hat Launches Red Hat AI Enterprise to Deliver a Unified AI Platform that Spans from Metal to Agents

RALEIGH, N.C.--( BUSINESS WIRE)--Red Hat, the world's leading provider of open source solutions, today announced Red Hat AI Enterprise, an integrated AI platform for deploying and managing AI models, agents and applications across the hybrid cloud. It joins the Red Hat AI portfolio which includes Red Hat AI Inference Server, Red Hat OpenShift AI and Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI. Red Hat is also introducing Red Hat AI 3.3, bringing significant updates and enhancements across the company’s entire AI portfolio. Together, these solutions provide a comprehensive "metal-to-agent" stack, integrating the underlying Linux and Kubernetes infrastructure with advanced inference and agentic capabilities to help organizations move from fragmented experimentation to governed, autonomous operations.

The enterprise AI landscape is rapidly evolving from simple chat interfaces toward high-density, autonomous agentic workflows that require deeper integration across the entire technology stack. However, many organizations remain stuck in the "pilot phase" due to fragmented tools and inconsistent infrastructure. Red Hat AI Enterprise addresses this by unifying the model and application lifecycles allowing IT teams to manage AI as a standardized enterprise system rather than a siloed project - making AI delivery as reliable and repeatable as traditional enterprise software.

Red Hat AI Enterprise: The foundation for AI production

Red Hat AI Enterprise provides core capabilities, including high-performance AI inference, model tuning and customization and agent deployment and management, with the flexibility to support any model and any hardware across any environment. Fueled by Red Hat OpenShift – the industry’s leading hybrid cloud application platform powered by Kubernetes – at its core, Red Hat AI Enterprise delivers a highly scalable and more consistent experience with a stronger security footprint, anywhere, using familiar tools and frameworks. For NVIDIA AI infrastructure, NVIDIA and Red Hat co-engineered the new Red Hat AI Factory with NVIDIA, combining Red Hat AI Enterprise and NVIDIA AI Enterprise to help speed and scale production AI for enterprises.

Key benefits of Red Hat AI Enterprise include:

Extending strategic flexibility and full-stack efficiency with Red Hat AI 3.3

Red Hat’s strategy centers on bridging the gap between mission-critical stability and frontier innovation through a unified platform. The latest software release expands model choice, deepens full-stack optimization for next-generation silicon and hardens operational consistency for frontier models.

New features and enhancements include:

“For AI to deliver true business value, it must be operationalized as a core component of the enterprise software stack, not as a standalone silo. Red Hat AI Enterprise is designed to bridge the gap between infrastructure and innovation by providing a unified metal to agent platform. By integrating advanced tuning and agentic capabilities with the industry-leading foundation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Red Hat OpenShift, we are providing the complete stack - from the GPU-accelerated hardware to the models and agents that drive business logic. Additionally, with Red Hat AI 3.3 organizations can move beyond fragmented pilots to governed, repeatable and high-performance AI operations across the hybrid cloud.”
